Chapter 2129: Reason for their interruption
With a playful smile, Akane moved over to sit down at the edge of the sofa.
Judging from how her eyes focused on the bulging blanket on top of me, she already figured out that Fuyu was hiding there.
I mean, one didn't need to be observant to know what's up. Moreover, I'm using a short and not-so-thick blanket, unlike the ones we have in our bedroom. Our feet were sticking out.
The scene where this kind of bump will go unnoticed only often works in fiction!
On the side, Eri and Futaba were pointing at us, silently giggling at this scene.
"Husband, where is Fuyu? I thought she'd be here with you."
Akane knowingly asked, holding her smirk from widening.
I could only shake my head at that since the girl underneath was already quivering in embarrassment. Her arms wrapped around me tightly as though she was trying to sink in further in order to not be noticed by Akane.
Little did she know, she already failed. Maybe it was possible if we were laying side by side but not when she's on top of me like this.
To spare my girl from being too embarrassed, I lifted the blanket off of us, revealing Fuyu who was desperately clinging to me.
I heard Eri and Futaba exclaim from the side upon seeing our current state. Akane, on the other hand, poked Fuyu's cheek and laughed.
"Ruki-kun..." With an indignant voice, Fuyu looked up at me and pouted before facing Akane and the other three... "So, why are the three of you here? Akane, you said you won't interrupt us."
"I did say that but are we supposed to pretend you're not hiding from us, Fuyu? You see, we came down to drink some water."
"Akane, don't tease Fuyu. You three came down for a reason."
"Hehe. Is it that obvious? Alright. I'm sorry for disturbing your moment." Akane's mischievous laughter continued. She then looked at Fuyu and poked her best friend's cheek again. She's enjoying her reactions.
On the other hand, Fuyu was like a cat protecting her territory. She continued clinging to me and enjoyed my arm wrapped around her.
A while later, Akane finally told us their reason for 'disturbing' us.
It's not that serious, contextually. However, the fact that Eri and Futaba also came down with her spoke volumes about what's the matter at hand.
In short, my silly wife who stayed with them in the room while Fuyu was spending time with me brought up the ridiculous suggestion of allowing me to sleep with them.
Wild, right?
Even if it's a wide bed that can fit all of us, I'm still a guy. Akane's suggestion defeats the purpose of me considerately choosing to stay here while they sleep in our room.
But this is Akane we're talking about. After seeing the change in Eri and Futaba's impression of me... she boldly brought it up, hoping that they would say yes.
Right. While Fuyu here declared not handing me over to Akane and sleeping here with me, her best friends discussed letting me into the room.
That's why Fuyu was left speechless.
On the other hand, I kind of expected my silly wife to pull a stunt like this. I smilingly shook my head as my eyes landed on the other two.
Eri was grinning from ear to ear as though she was having fun with this situation. As for Futaba, the girl couldn't make eye contact with me. However, the way she fidgeted somehow clued me about her thoughts on that suggestion.
Most likely, both or one of them had yet to give their answer.
Their decision should be unanimous, right? Otherwise, it wouldn't be fair to the one who rejected it.
And that's why they also accompanied Akane here.
Ah. No. Akane must've told them they could change their mind again after seeing or hearing our reaction.
"Fuyu, you won't say no, right? I believe you also want to sleep next to husband." Akane curled her lips as she poked Fuyu's cheek again, bringing her back to reality.
"O-of course, I do! But Akane... why are the three of you here? Don't tell me..."
Fuyu trailed her voice there making Akane burst into giggling again. She cupped her best friend's cheeks before whispering, "Yes, they agreed to it too. Actually, we're here for husband. The one most likely to reject the idea is him, right?"
Yeah. Whisper or not, I caught all of that...
She's not wrong though... Even if they all agreed to it, I should still be the voice of reason for them, right? I'm being sensible here. However, knowing my wife, she'd make it happen in one way or another.
"Ruki-kun, what do you think?" As someone still not as crazy as Akane, Fuyu turned to me to hear my thoughts.
"I love the idea. Only an idiot will reject being in the same bed with four gorgeous girls like you." I put on a shameless smile which instantly evoked a reaction from Eri and Futaba.
The former shyly laughed but she focused more on being called 'gorgeous'. As for the latter, she grunted unhappily as though she was scolding me for being shameless.
In any case, I wasn't done yet. Before Fuyu could be disappointed at my answer or Akane's mischievousness flared up once more, I continued, "However, it's inappropriate, right? Eri and Futaba will be uncomfortable with my presence. It'll be fine if it's only you and Akane though. However, let's not do that. This is your night. All four of you."
With approval in her eyes, Fuyu elatedly nodded. She's probably praising me inside her head for that answer. I mean, even if it's going to be in her favor, she still doesn't want to put her friends in an uncomfortable situation. She's not that selfish yet.
And Akane also expected me to answer like that. She beamed a proud smile before looking at the other two.
"Hear that, Eri, Futaba? What did I tell you? Regardless of our decision, husband will object to my suggestion."
"Yes. But I know Onoda-kun isn't going to take advantage of the situation. That's why I don't mind if he's with us. I also want to hear some of his stories!" Eri cheerfully nodded before
winking at me.
So, she's the one who agreed, huh? Then, Futaba should be the one who either rejected the idea or held her decision.
"... Yeah. He might be shameless but he knew how to behave properly. I don't care anymore. It won't matter if he's there with us or not. As long as you two behave around him... W-we won't be waking up in the middle of the night because the bed shakes a lot, right?"
At first, she sounded indifferent about the whole idea but when adding that hypothetical situation, her face visibly reddened and her voice stuttered while furtively glancing at me and Fuyu who was still in the same position as they arrived.
Eri tilted her head a bit since she couldn't understand right away but when she did, the girl immediately turned around, embarrassed.
Fuyu naturally realized what Futaba was hinting at. She buried her face on my neck and her hips subtly moved, rubbing herself on me. She's aware of what she's doing. If I'm not wrong, the girl got a little triggered upon remembering that we were truly about to transition to something more than kisses before we got interrupted by them.
The blanket was still partly covering our lower bodies so unless Akane and the other two were
looking there, they wouldn't notice Fuyu's naughty movements.
In any case, Akane who was at the center of this all simply smirked, displaying her
mischievousness once again.
"Oh. I won't be able to promise it but we'll try. Right, husband?"
This silly girl... How should I answer that? Say yes and also promise that we won't make a
sound when making love later?
